£500 worth of cannabis seized by Bridgwater police

CANNABIS and equipment used in its production has been seized by police officers in Bridgwater.

Police received information from the local community which enabled them to execute a drugs warrant at a property in Stockmoor Drive last Wednesday, April 16.

As well as finding cannabis with a street value of more than £500, they also found scales, plastic bags and cash.

A man was arrested on suspicion of supplying a Class B drug and is currently on bail while police continue their enquiries.

Sergeant Ryan Edwards said: “We were able to obtain a warrant for this address as a result of intelligence we received recently. This is a good example of the local communities helping us and shows that we take all information received by us seriously and are willing to act."
